Is there Poison oak or Ivy in the Mingus Mountains?

OK,

So here is my problem. I googled "Poison Oak Arizona" and one site says that we don't have it here, another says it's only ivy, another shows sumac as well. It would appear that specific regional information searches on the web can be very misleading!

So if you have had a bad experience in Az with this stuff what does ours really look like? Are there all 3 or 2 or one?

When I was a teenager in Northern California I would occasionally get too close and have severe reactions. Now in my mid 50's and in Az since 1976 I don't remember seeing it here but now I think I have. What else has the 3 leaf "uh oh" look here?

Grew up in Prescott and worked Mingus Mtn for FS for about 5 years, never saw any there. If you go south to Pine Mtn, you will find some in Gap Creek and Ash Creek where there is permanent water.
